Former College Student Sentenced to Life in Prison for Texas Bomb Plot

Posted: Updated:

(KCEN) -- A Saudi Arabian college student convicted in a Texas bomb plot will now spend life in prison.

Twenty-two-year-old Khalid Ali-M Aldawsari was sentenced yesterday in Amarillo.

He was arrested in Lubbock in February of last year.

That's after the FBI discovered a bomb plot targeting the Dallas home of President George W. Bush.

Investigators found enough chemicals for 15 pounds of explosives in his apartment.

They also discovered his handwritten journal saying it was time to wage jihad against the U.S.
